Question 1

Do you offer free measuring and fitting for blinds in Perth?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide free home surveys, quotations and professional fittings so you can have your windows measured properly and your new blinds installed without extra hassle.

Question 2

Can you supply blinds for roof windows and UPVC frames?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can. We offer VELUX® blinds for roof windows and Perfect Fit blinds that work well on many UPVC windows because they sit neatly without the look of a standard fitting.

Question 3

Do you only install new blinds, or can you repair old ones too?

Accepted Answer

We also handle blind cleaning and repairs. If a blind is dirty, damaged, or no longer operating as it should, we can assess it and let you know if it can be restored.

Question 4

Do you supply blinds for uPVC windows?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we supply Perfect Fit blinds for uPVC windows. They're designed to sit neatly within the frame, which can give you a clean look without drilling into the window itself.

Question 5

Can you fit blinds for roof windows?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we supply and fit VELUX® blinds. These are made for roof windows, so they're a practical choice when you want better light control in loft rooms, extensions or converted attic spaces.

Question 6

Is it worth repairing blinds instead of replacing them?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes. If the fabric or slats are still in good condition, a repair can be a sensible way to get the blind working properly again without paying for a full replacement.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

We supply made-to-measure roller, Roman, Venetian, and vertical blinds, along with Perfect Fit options for modern windows. We can also help with shutters, curtains, and commercial window coverings if you want a coordinated look.

Question 9

Can you help if my existing blinds need attention?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide a blind cleaning and repair service as well as new installations. If your current blinds are marked, stiff, or not working as they should, we can advise on the most suitable next step.

Question 10

Do you offer free measuring and fitting for blinds in Dundee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide a free home visit and quotation, measure your windows accurately, and fit your chosen products professionally, so you don't have to deal with guesswork or awkward installation yourself.

Question 11

Can you supply blinds for uPVC and roof windows?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can supply Perfect Fit blinds for uPVC windows and VELUX® roof window blinds, giving you options that are designed to suit those specific window styles properly.

Question 12

Do you only install new blinds, or can you clean and repair existing ones?

Accepted Answer

We do both. Alongside new made-to-measure blinds, shutters, and curtains, we also provide a cleaning and repair service to help keep your existing window furnishings looking smart and working as they should.

Question 13

Do made-to-measure curtains really make a difference?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We make them to the exact width and drop of your window, so they hang better, cover more neatly, and usually give a smarter finish than off-the-shelf curtains.

Question 14

Can you supply curtains with blackout or thermal linings?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can provide blackout and thermal lining options. These are a good choice if you want to reduce light in bedrooms or help your room feel warmer and more comfortable.

Question 15

Do you fit the curtains after measuring?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we include professional fitting as part of our service. We measure first, arrange your quotation, then return to fit your finished curtains once they are completed.

Question 16

What does made to measure mean for blinds?

Accepted Answer

It means we size the blind to suit your specific window rather than using a standard off-the-shelf size. That helps the blind sit neatly, work smoothly, and gives you better control over light and privacy.

Question 17

Are Perfect Fit blinds a good option for uPVC windows?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they are a popular choice for UPVC windows because they sit neatly within the frame and create a tidy look. They are especially useful when you want a fitted finish without the blind feeling bulky around the window.

Question 18

Can I choose blackout lining with made-to-measure blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, blackout lining is available on selected styles such as Roman blinds. It is a useful option for bedrooms, nurseries, and any room where you want to reduce outside light.

Question 19

Are your shutters made to measure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We supply made-to-measure shutters, which help create a cleaner fit and a more finished look for your windows.

Question 20

Is fitting included with your shutters?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We include free professional fitting, so your shutters are installed properly without extra installation charges.

Question 21

Can shutters help with privacy and light control?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Shutters are a practical way to help you manage privacy and adjust natural light through the day, which makes them useful in bedrooms, living spaces and street-facing rooms.

Question 22

Can blind cleaning help if my blinds look dull rather than broken?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A professional clean can remove built-up dust, surface grime, and general marks that make blinds look tired. If the blind still works properly, cleaning may be all that's needed to freshen the room.

Question 23

Is it worth repairing blinds instead of replacing them?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes. If the main body of the blind is still in decent condition, repairing worn or damaged parts can be a more cost-effective option than buying new ones.

Question 24

Do you clean and repair blinds for workplaces as well as homes?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we help both homes and workplaces. That makes our service useful if you need your blinds to stay neat, functional, and presentable in a working environment.

Question 25

Are Venetian blinds a good choice for privacy and light control?

Accepted Answer

Yes, that's one of the main reasons people choose them. You can tilt the slats to let light in while still reducing visibility from outside, which gives you more control than many fabric blinds.

Question 26

Do you supply wooden and aluminium Venetian blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we do. Wooden Venetian blinds create a warmer, more natural look, while aluminium styles are sleek, practical, and well-suited to kitchens, offices, and other everyday spaces.

Question 27

Do Venetian blinds need to be made to measure?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, yes. A made-to-measure blind sits better, looks tidier, and works more smoothly, especially if your window size is slightly unusual or you want a more polished finish.

Question 28

What are Z-Lite Day and Night blinds?

Accepted Answer

They are blinds made with alternating sheer and solid fabric panels. We adjust those layers to help you control light and privacy more precisely than a standard blind.

Question 29

Are day and night blinds suitable for bedrooms?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they can work well in bedrooms when you want privacy and softer light control throughout the day. If you need a darker room for sleeping, we can also talk you through other blind options that may suit you better.

Question 30

Do you measure and fit Z Lite Day and Night blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide a made-to-measure service and free fitting. That means we take care of the practical side, so your new blinds are fitted neatly and work as they should.

Question 31

Are wooden blinds made to measure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We make wooden blinds to measure so they suit your exact window size, which helps them look neater and operate more smoothly than off-the-shelf options.

Question 32

Do wooden blinds work well in modern homes?

Accepted Answer

They do. Wooden blinds suit modern interiors because their clean lines and natural finish sit well with simple décor, painted walls and large window spaces.

Question 33

Are wooden blinds easy to maintain?

Accepted Answer

In most rooms, yes. A regular light dusting and the occasional wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth are usually enough to keep them looking smart.

Question 34

Are your VELUX® blinds made to measure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We supply made-to-measure blinds for VELUX® windows, which help give you a cleaner fit and smoother operation than a one-size approach.

Question 35

Do you fit VELUX® blinds as part of the service?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We include free professional fitting, so you don't need to tackle angled roof windows on your own.

Question 36

Can VELUX® blinds help with bright loft rooms?

Accepted Answer

They can. A well-fitted blind helps control glare and strong daylight, which can make loft bedrooms, offices, and upper-floor living spaces more comfortable to use.

Question 37

Are vertical blinds a good choice for patio doors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they work especially well for patio doors because the slats are easy to draw and tilt. That gives you flexible privacy and light control without blocking access in the same way heavier window coverings can.

Question 38

Do you measure and fit vertical blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide a free quote and free professional fitting. We make each blind to measure, which helps it hang properly and operate smoothly.

Question 39

Can vertical blinds be cleaned or repaired?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer a cleaning and repair service. If your blinds are marked, worn, or not working as they should, we can look at the condition and advise on the most sensible next step.

Question 40

Can Roman blinds be made with blackout lining?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can supply Roman blinds with blackout lining when you want to reduce light in bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms. If you prefer a softer filtered light, we can also discuss non-blackout options.

Question 41

Are Roman blinds suitable for every room?

Accepted Answer

Roman blinds work well in many rooms, especially lounges, bedrooms, dining rooms, and home offices. The ideal choice depends on the window position, the amount of sunlight, and how much privacy you need.

Question 42

Do you measure and fit Roman blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we handle both measuring and fitting. The Blind Company includes free professional fitting, which helps make sure your blind looks right and works smoothly once installed.

Question 43

Are your roller blinds made to measure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We make our roller blinds to measure so they fit your window properly and give a neater finish than standard off-the-shelf sizes.

Question 44

Question 45

Do you include fitting with roller blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we include free professional fitting with our roller blinds. We also provide a free, no-obligation quote, so you can understand the cost before going ahead.

Question 46

Are pleated blinds a good choice for smaller rooms?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they're often a great fit for smaller rooms because the fabric folds away neatly and keeps the window looking uncluttered. They can soften light without making the space feel boxed in.

Question 47

Can pleated blinds help with privacy as well as light control?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pleated blinds are useful when you want to manage both privacy and daylight throughout the day. The exact effect depends on the fabric you choose, and we can help you pick an option that suits the room.

Question 48

Do pleated blinds need professional measuring and fitting?

Accepted Answer

Professional measuring and fitting help pleated blinds sit properly and operate smoothly. It's especially useful for awkward sizes, modern window frames, and rooms where you want a neat, finished look.

Question 49

What does made-to-measure mean for blinds?

Accepted Answer

It means we size the blind to suit your specific window rather than using a standard off-the-shelf size. That helps the blind sit neatly, work smoothly, and gives you better control over light and privacy.

Question 50

Are Perfect Fit blinds a good option for uPVC windows?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they are a popular choice for UPVC windows because they sit neatly within the frame and create a tidy look. They are especially useful when you want a fitted finish without the blind feeling bulky around the window.

Question 51

Can I choose blackout lining with made-to-measure blinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, blackout lining is available on selected styles such as Roman blinds. It is a useful option for bedrooms, nurseries, and any room where you want to reduce outside light.

Question 55

Do we offer devices to keep the operating cords out of the reach of children?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can supply child safety devices for blinds. These safety devices keep blind cords securely out of children’s reach.

Question 56

How do you match blind with carpets and your other décor?

Accepted Answer

Matching blinds with carpets is quite easy. Blinds in any colour or pattern will look great with any neutral walls and flooring. Stick to plain blinds if you’re going for a striped carpet or walls. If you’re matching blinds to a coloured carpet or walls, you’ll want to see how the two work together before making a decision.

Question 57

Do we offer a no-drill solution designed specifically for uPVC windows?

Accepted Answer

Our made-to-measure ‘PerfectFit’ frames are ideal for uPVC windows and doors. The frame simply clicks into place neatly between the glazing and beading, meaning there is no need for screws or drilling. There are no control cords either, so these styles are ideal for a child’s bedroom or nursery. Choose from roller, pleated and metal Venetian blinds, which can all be made to fit snugly into the frame.

Question 58

What blinds do we recommend for bay windows?

Accepted Answer

Bay windows can make a real statement with the right window dressing. Vertical blinds can be made with a curved headrail which allows them to follow the shape of the bay. If you would prefer to have a single blind fitted at each window instead you can position your blinds at differing heights, giving a stylish effect. Choose from hundreds of options available within our made-to-measure collection.

Question 59

Will blinds help to keep you warm in winter?

Accepted Answer

Having blinds on a single glazed window can reduce heat loss through windows by up to 40%. At a time when energy bills are rising, this can help you save money on your energy bills. Our wide range of thermal fabrics and linings help retain heat in your home. All our Roman blinds come with the option of thermal lining, which will make your room feel much cosier.

Question 60

What blinds do we recommend for skylight windows?

Accepted Answer

Skylights can be a quirky feature of your decor. Our roller, Venetian and pleated blinds can all be made to fit skylights, thanks to our Easi-stop system. You can also choose from a wide selection of VELUX® Roller blinds.

Question 61

What blinds are best for bathrooms?
